Perfume Making Workshop review

The scent of Istanbul workshop was a wonderful experience. Our host Zeynep was cheerful, kind and knowledgeable. We were generously hosted with unlimited hot drinks, water and delicious sweets in a beautiful space. We went back home with delicious perfumes from our own design:) I highly recommend this experience

Türk kahvesi kültürünü tanımak için çok keyifli bir çalışma. Sunum, kahve yapımını deneyimleme ve fal bakmayı öğrenme çok eğlenceliydi.

Arkadaşımın doğum günü etkinliği olarak gittik, 2 saat boyunca hem güzel bilgiler öğrendik hem de kendi parfümümüzü yaptık çok keyifliydi. Eğitmen arkadaş da çok sıcakkanlı ve konuya hakimdi sağolsun :)

Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

Все было отлично, несмотря на языковой барьер. Но было мало выбора бусинок для покрытия самой лампы, хотелось синюю национальную, а цвета были только с розовым/золотым/зеленым цветом. Для узора много выбора, а вот для основного покрытия нет. Гид был супер!

A program minden elvárásunkat felülmúlta. Nagyon élveztük, minden percét. Jó volt az Isztambuli nyüzsgés után egy pár órára megnyugodni. Az ár érték arány kiváló. Ajánlom mindenkinek jó szívvel!

Turkish Coffee Making and Fortune Telling Workshop review

The activity was fun. the meet up was a bit confusing. when we arrived to the workshop, it was very educational and we were given great detail of the history of turkish coffee. the demonstration could be improved if the instructor had his own set-up and not used the participants materials, it took away a bit of the hands on experience for me. all the others in our group were able to do all the processes hands on. overall it was really fun and they give you a bag with gifts which can be used to do this when you return home. 100% recimmend

Turkish Tile - Ceramic Art Workshop review

This was really nice. Timings and venue was changed last minute so we started off a bit late as they had to prepare for the activity. Guide was nice and friendly, only spoke Turkish though. Staff were nice and kind, Fabrikafa make & coffee is a cute, artsy place. Had a good time overall.

Such a fun experience! I booked it for myself, but my boyfriend came along (lowkey dragged him lol) and even he ended up loving it. We both left with custom scents…something not too big to take home to remember our trip by. Highly recommend!

Turkish Mosaic Lamp Workshop review

We chose this activity after having visited the most popular Istanbul sites on previous trips. This was a nice change, allowing us to have a nice hands-on experience while giving us a reason to visit Uskudar as well. The guide was helpful without being overbearing. After completing the project, we went to one of the restaurants nearby for lunch, allowing our lamps to dry before picking them up. Staff prepared them with bubble wrap to make them safe for travel.

Perfume Making Workshop review

Uczestnicząc w warsztatach poznaliśmy ludzi z różnych krajów, atmosfera była wspaniała - dostaliśmy poczęstunek w formie herbatki wody i przekąsek. Wszystko było jasno wytłumaczone, w przypadku problemów z doborem odpowiednich zapachów Mustafa (prowadzący) pomagał w wybraniu idealnej kompozycji. W miejscu są prowadzone również inne warsztaty, które wyglądały zachęcająco:) Bardzo bardzo polecamy ❤️
